Didier Six Backs Lamine Yamal Over Mbappé for Ballon d'Or

1 / 2

Former France international Didier Six has named Barcelona winger Lamine Yamal as his preferred Ballon d'Or candidate ahead of Kylian Mbappé. Six said Yamal's achievements with Spain and Barcelona give the teenager an advantage, while Mbappé remains a leading contender because of his prolific scoring record for Real Madrid. However, some claims in the original report are inaccurate. Spain won Euro 2024, not the 2026 World Cup, while Mbappé was part of France's 2018 World Cup-winning team and has 12 World Cup goals.
